Sunsets and such.

Positive posts only for a while. Enough with the actively harmful doom-scrolling.

Nakhon Ratchasima clock tower.

Monday 20250331 was a different day. We went to downtown Korat for some kind of festival they are having. I realized how infrequently I go downtown. It felt like going there for the first time.

But it was nice, very nice. It was very nice just to be out of the house.

Still doing the sunsets.

Still doing the sunsets--when possible (air pollution and extreme heat/humidity). Will probably always do the sunsets until, you know...

Got onboard a stationary 747.

At the Airplane Park Korat, you can go onboard a stationary, retired Thai Airways 747. This might be the first time I realized how truly huge these planes are. Screw the bean counters at Boeing, but to all the people who build these planes: Respect!!!

Jer-Bear: I think I kind of liked that nickname...

Grateful to still be outside the cage looking in... These are the apparently fun-loving หมีหมา / dog bears (Malayan Sun Bear) at the Korat Zoo.

Red ant nest: Some good eating here...

I am told that people enjoy eating red ant eggs from red ant nests like the one in the video below. I have not yet tried them, and that's okay.

In Thailand, cool weather is a bad thing.

Let's be honest. Thailand is hotter than hell most of the time. But there is that rare period in parts of December and January when it is relatively less hot. This year, we are blessed with an abundance of relatively less hot weather. Sounds great, right?

Wrong! Due to atmospheric conditions at this time of year, if the temperature goes down, the pollution goes up. You can still go outside. You just have to wear an N95 mask. Perhaps that's one of the benefits of Covid. We got used to wearing face masks.
